What happened to the Necromunda RPG? | Tom and Ben's Warhammer Wednesday
Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 5:46Quar Crusader Cavalry prompts a look at unusual mounts and a debate over the miniature range's appeal.
- 12:43The Necromunda discussion distinguishes rumoured RPG plans from what Games Workshop actually announced.
- 14:46Licensing and manufacturing explanations enter the conversation as speculation, not confirmed reasons.
- 24:18Battle March offers smaller Old World battles, prompting calls for similar support in Warhammer 40K.
- 32:36Tom and Ben assess the announced Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar Christmas Battleforce boxes.
Was there ever a Necromunda RPG to cancel? Ben brings an awkward distinction to Tom's appetite for conspiracy: Games Workshop hadn't actually said it was making one. The article they examine previews miniatures while ruling out an RPG expansion. Licensing and manufacturing theories follow, but explanations remain firmly in the speculative pile.
That discussion supplies Battle Report - Games Night's most watched new upload, with nearly 59,000 views. Getting there takes a wonderfully specific detour through Mayor McCheese and the possibility of putting burger hats on Quar cavalry. Ben's early admission, "We've gone wildly off the rails. This is a Warhammer news podcast," is practically an itinerary.
The Quar get their own defence in the comments. Viewers describe painting the models, compare their designs to Jim Henson's fantasy creatures and question why Tom and Ben aren't more taken with them. Another recurring request is straightforward: make Warhammer Wednesday more often.
Five uploads filled the week, including "We're in Star Wars again" and the aptly weary "Painting trim". The newest, "Poophammer or Goophammer", currently draws the most daily views, followed by "YourTrek or LoreTrek", rather than the longer-running Wednesday episode.
The subscriber count stayed unchanged, though daily views are comfortably above the channel's usual pace. Among nearby anime, comics and tabletop channels, The Animaze had a particularly substantial week, while Battle Report - Games Night drew a weekly audience between Antoine Bandele's and ComicTropes'. Back at Tom and Ben's table, the more practical debate is whether smaller Warhammer battles deserve more official support, and whether Chaos miniatures really need quite so much trim.

What viewers say
Quar designs have always felt like "what if the Henson Company made another Dark Crystal type world."
@heraldsSee it on YouTubeI have recently got a box of quar and painted them up, absolutely enjoyed it so got the new starter box and I'm halfway through painting it. They're just fun goofy dudes that are enjoyable to paint. I haven't even played the game yet haha

I find it fascinating that Tom and Ben don't care for Quar, it seems like the kind of thing they'd be all for.
